“Kerrigan did a great job walking our dog while we were on. Action for a week.”

“My Jesper loves Ross, he's dependable, on time and seems to enjoy dogs. My dog is over 100 pounds at 18 months, kind of a handful, Ross handles him beautifully”

“Alissa was so wonderful with our Aussie puppy! She is very kind and sweet. We came home to a happy puppy every day she walked her for us. Will definitely book again!”

“Izzy was great and our pups loved her! We reached out to Izzy last minute, as we needed someone to let our pups out/walk them while we were out of town unexpectedly. She came over and met them both ahead of time, and our very timid rescue dog immediately took to Izzy. She was on time each day, and let me know when she arrived and was leaving. She made sure their food and water was full, and locked the house when she left. We will definitely be reaching out to her next time we need some help!”

About: If my husband would let me, I’d buy a zoo (come on powerball). I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve never met a pet that I didn’t want to spoil and cuddle. My daughter calls me a “stay at home pet mom”. Most days I’m home all day, with the exception of an occasional errand, appointment or maybe a date night. Recently our 13 year old Staffordshire terrier/boxer- Zoey, went to doggie Heaven. She was a gentle soul who we miss immensely. We have 3 kitties who are like my tiny babies- all very spoiled. Bam, who loves walking all the pups, and Pumpkin, and Elsa. All three are rescues. Basically I’m their “do-girl”. They all know how to talk me into extra treats. I have had to administer meds in the past and don’t mind doing so. Animal caretaking is my full time job and my family is 1000% okay with that. I’ve never met an animal that I didn’t want to bring home with me. Your fur baby is invited and encouraged to make our house their home away from home. They will be well spoiled and loved, as my entire family will be doting on them.

“Zoey has been taking care of my pets for the past few years and we love her! She’s very attentive to their needs and makes sure that they are always taken care of and happy when we get home!”

About: Ever since I was a little girl I have been surrounded by furry friends (a.k.a pets). I have had bunnies, puppies, cats, and turtles, and I have always had responsibilities taking care of them. I enjoy getting to know animals and making them comfortable so that they can trust me. I am naturally a caregiver so your pet will always be in good hands! Pet care would fit great into my daily routine because I never have to be away from home for more than 4-5 hours. I am fairly free because I have a cleaning job in the mornings that only takes up to 4 hours, and then the rest of the day is mine to spend with pets! In my own home I care for pets by spending time with them in my bedroom, out doors, and even if they are in their crate. I am able to take dogs to dog parks and on long walks as well. At other client’s homes I usually take direction from the client as to how they want me to care for their pets. However, I am open to doing whatever it takes to make your pet comfortable.

“It is clear that Kelsie is very responsible and compassionate towards animals. She is always dependable whenever I need help with my Webster. She is very knowledable and experienced. I highly recommend her!”
